They found that a third of all students transfer before earning a degree (p. 5).1 The number of students who transfer in the fall, at the start of the academic year, has been estimated at more than one million with another smaller wave of students transferring at the start of the spring semester.2 A recent study, The Community College Route to the Bachelor’s Degree, identifies three barriers to community college students’ quest for a bachelor’s degree: ■ Failure to transfer to a four-year college after earning 60 credits or an associate degree ■ Loss of credits when transferring to a four-year college ■ Demands of work and/or family interrupt college enrollment.3 This “Map-2-Transfer” project was conceived to provide counselors and students with information to help them navigate the transfer process to an independent college or university and minimize any barriers to successful transfer. The project was funded with a federal College Access Challenge Grant (CACG) awarded to the Commission on Independent Colleges and Universities (cIcu) by the New York State Higher Education Services Corporation (HESC), the state agency designated to administer the State’s CACG program since 2008. The goals and objectives of CACG include providing students and their families with information about college access to increase their participation in post-secondary education. This Map-2-Transfer Manual was made possible with support from cIcu member colleges and universities, which provided the data for this resource. The Tips-2-Transfer section was written in collaboration with transfer experts from the New York State Transfer and Articulation Association (NYSTAA), a consortium of advisors and other professionals from public, independent and proprietary colleges and universities involved and interested in improving the college transfer process (www.nystaa.org). The cIcu Outreach staff wishes to extend a special thank you to the members of the NYSTAA Ad Hoc Committee who contributed their time and expertise to assist in the development of this project’s Tips-2-Transfer brochure series: Alex Ott, Aubrey Rakoski, Bart Grachan, Cathy Anderson, Kandi Geibel, Rebecca Mack and her colleagues at Monroe Community College, Robin Graff, and Thomas D.

In 2013, 6% of the undergraduate students enrolled at New York State’s independent colleges and universities were transfer students, a number that has remained relatively constant since 2009.1 Certainly, students’ paths to transfer vary widely. A student who attends a community college may transfer after finishing an associate degree. Or a student may start college, but stop for personal reasons and then return to complete the degree at a different college after several years. Other students may decide to complete their degree at a college or university other than the one where they began their studies. The purpose of this Manual, “Map-2Transfer,” is to provide students from these different backgrounds guidance in navigating the transfer process and continuing with their postsecondary education plans. The information in this Map-2-Transfer Manual is also available online at www.nycolleges.org. For more information about college transfer, visit www.nystaa.org, www.nacacnet.org or www.collegetransfer.net. Questions to Ask When Researching Prospective Colleges or Universities Check with your Transfer Counselor at the college or university to which you are applying to be sure you meet all admissions requirements and deadlines. Questions to ask the counselor: 1. What is the minimum cumulative college GPA required for acceptance? This varies widely! 2. How many semesters/quarter hours and credits will be required to complete a degree in my major field of study? 3. What core/general education classes are required? Note that universities/colleges have different requirements for the courses they accept as transfer credits. Often it is more difficult to transfer credits from your third and fourth year of college. 4. Is there a maximum number of credits that can be transferred? 5. What courses and credits will be accepted for transfer credit and what are their course equivalencies? 6. How will the transferred courses and requirements help me to earn the degree I am seeking? 7. What scholarship opportunities are available for transfer students? Be sure to ask this early to ensure that you meet all application deadlines. Funds may be limited for transfer students. 8. What type of living space is available? Every college has unique policies related to housing – be sure to ask what options are available to you as a transfer student. 9. When is the best time to meet with an advisor and register for classes? 10. Are there transfer orientation sessions or transfer student seminars offered to help you connect with other transfer students? 1 Transfer Checklist First steps… ■ Identify the academic major you hope to pursue ■ Research colleges and universities ■ Visit the campus (take a tour); or, if not possible, visit virtually on the web or use social media • Schedule an appointment with admissions and/ or the academic department that interests you • Ask about: – Transferability of credits – College/University cost – Financial aid (learn about availability of grants, scholarships and loans, as well as application requirements and deadlines) ■ Gather and prepare application and supporting documents such as: • High school transcripts (if required) and, if also requested, SAT or ACT and AP scores • College/University transcripts from current college (if attending) and all other colleges previously attended • Military transcripts, DD214 Service Discharge documents, and Kicker Contact if applicable • Educational gap statement/essay (if you have taken time off from school, you may be asked to write an essay outlining what you have been doing during that time) • Letter(s) of recommendation • For international students: − Documentation of English proficiency − Immigration and Visa documents ■ Apply for financial aid • Submit your FAFSA • Apply for any scholarships, grants, other aid • Apply for veterans benefits Once you’ve been admitted… ■ Review your Transfer Credit Evaluation ■ Meet with an advisor or transfer counselor to register for courses and complete enrollment • Pay deposit by deadline • Decide on housing (if needed) • Attend orientation session • Submit health and immunization records • Submit final college transcripts National Center for Education Statistics Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System; compiled by cIcu, May 2015. ii Tips-2-Transfer for Community College or 2-Year College Students Are you interested in pursuing a bachelor’s degree following completion of your associate degree?

There are many options for adult or returning students for either full-time or part-time study. Read on to learn some of the important steps to take to transition to a new university/college and request transfer of previouslyearned credits. Q&A: Transfer Answers for Adult or Returning-to-College Transfers 1. Why do colleges differentiate between traditional and adult or returning-to-college transfer students? • Many universities and colleges have unique programs specifically for adult or those students returning to college after a hiatus. For example, the institution may have an Adult Division that only admits students older than age 21. Frequently classes are offered at times that are more convenient for students who have other day-time or workweek obligations (for example, in the evening or on weekends). An additional distinction is that adult students are often defined as independent students for financial aid eligibility. 2. Am I able to take one class or do I have to go full time (12-15 credits)? • When you register for classes, you have the option to fully matriculate, which means you are seeking a degree such as a bachelor’s, or to register as a non-matriculated student, meaning you are taking courses without the goal of obtaining a degree. As a matriculated, full-time student you may have access to financial aid, scholarships and grants. A matriculated part-time student has fewer financial aid options, but may still be eligible for certain programs. Be sure to check with the college’s financial aid office. 3. I know that I want to enroll at a certain college; where do I begin? • Research the program at the college/university you are most interested in attending. Schedule a campus visit to go on a tour and meet with an admissions representative. If you can’t visit, or are more comfortable speaking with a counselor over the phone or via email, be sure that you have done your research in advance and prepare your questions carefully. It is very important to know how your current college/university credits will transfer into the specific degree that you’re interested in at the transfer college. 4. How can I afford a college or university? • Find out the institution’s costs and what the average financial aid package is for adult/returning-to-college students. Also ask what percentage of students receives financial aid, what scholarships or grants are offered at the college, and the qualifications needed to be awarded aid. Always be realistic about your finances. • Do not wait to be accepted before filing for financial aid! Check with the college to determine which forms you need to file and when you need to file them to be considered for all types of aid. Be sure to complete and submit all applications for aid and scholarships by the specified deadlines. • Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at fafsa.ed.gov • If you are a New York State resident applying to a college in New York State, apply for TAP through the FAFSA or online at: www.tap.hesc.ny.gov 5. What are my housing options? • Contact the campus Residential Life Office to inquire about housing for adult students. If you have a family and will require campus housing, be sure to ask if family housing is available. Most colleges will be able to provide information about off-campus apartments or, at a minimum, recommend a local realtor. 6. I need childcare; where can I get help? • Some institutions offer on-site childcare. There are often certain requirements you must meet to be eligible for this service. 7. How will I know what courses will transfer? • Take a look at Course Equivalencies often found on a college or university’s website. • The university or college you are transferring to will make the final decision about how and if your college credits or credit for life experience will transfer. Talk with a Transfer Counselor at the institution you will be attending to discuss your Transfer Credit Evaluation. 8. How do I begin the application process? • Check the college’s website for application procedures. • Some academic programs (e.g., nursing, teacher education, social work) often require a separate application in addition to the general application. • Most universities/colleges prefer you apply online. College applications are often found on the college’s Admissions page in a link such as ‘Apply Now.’ • Watch the deadlines! 9. Which transcripts do I need to send? • There are three types of transcripts – high school, college, and for U.S. Armed Service Veterans, military transcripts. • Request your official transcripts from ALL the colleges you have attended and from your high school, if required by the college. iv • For veterans, contact your military branch to obtain your military transcript. Tips-2-Transfer for Veterans and Active Duty Service Members If you are a veteran or currently in the military, there are many opportunities to help you continue your college education. In addition, military veterans may be eligible for academic credit for certain educational experiences or military course credit. Many campuses have dedicated counselors and advisors to help military and veteran students transfer and transition to campus. Read on to learn the important steps to transfer. Q&A: Transfer Answers for Veteran and Military Students 1. How do I identify my career interests? • Ask yourself: Where do I want to end up, and how do I get there? Think about your interests and your skills, including those learned in the military, and how they can lead to different career paths. 2. How do I research transfer colleges? • Think about what is important to you: majors offered, geographic location, size, cost, selectivity, athletics, housing, religious affiliation and setting (urban, suburban, or rural). Search for colleges that meet those criteria. • When researching, take notes on important information such as GPA requirements, application deadlines, transfer contact person, guaranteed housing, and scholarship information. • It is very important to understand how your college and military credits will transfer into the specific degree that you are interested in at the transfer college. • Ask if any of your military training will be used as college credits, and if so, how. The majority of institutions use the American Council on Education (ACE) recommendations on applying specific military courses and training as credit toward a college degree, but how and when they are applied may be determined by the academic program you are pursuing. • Ask if the college offers support for military students – and what kind of support. 3. What steps can I take to help me make my final college choices? • Talk with your academic advisor or contact a Transfer Counselor at your college if you’re currently attending a community college or other 2-year institution. 4. What courses should I be taking now and how will I know what credits will transfer? • Discuss your transfer plans with a Transfer Counselor or Education Services Officer at your current college – they can help guide you. • Concentrate on the pre-requisites you’ll need to be admitted into your chosen academic major. If you are just starting out and unsure of your final major, focus on taking general education/core requirements (for example, history, humanities, foreign language, etc.), not the major courses themselves. Note that many institutions have very specific criteria for the transfer of major courses. • Review Course Equivalencies often found on the 4-year colleges and universities’ websites. • Remember that the college or university you are considering transferring to is your best resource to ensure your transfer planning is on the right track. They will make the final decision about how and if your credits will transfer. 5. How do I begin the application process? • Check the college’s website for applications. • Some academic programs (e.g., nursing, teacher education, social work) require a separate application in addition to the general application. • Most institutions prefer you apply online. Applications are often found on the institution’s Admissions page in a link such as ‘Apply Now.’ • Always pay attention to the deadlines! 6. Which transcripts do I need to send? • Request your official transcripts from ALL colleges attended and from your high school, if required by the college. • Active and Veteran members of the U.S. Armed Forces should also submit their personal military transcripts for possible credit. Links to obtain transcripts for each branch of service can be found on the American Council on Education website (www.acenet.edu). • Keep track of who you submitted the request to and when requests were made. • Visit “Find Your College” at GoCollegeNY.org to help determine which college is for you. • Visit campuses if possible. You want to get a feel for the personality of the college to determine if it is a good fit for you. • Always contact an admissions representative at the university or college you are interested in attending. Inquire about potential scholarships, housing, financial aid, and other important concerns. The university/college you are transferring to will make the final decision about how and if your previous college credits or credit for life experience will transfer. v Tips-2-Transfer for Veterans and Active Duty Service Members 7. How do I apply for financial aid? • Contact each college’s financial aid office to ensure you completed all forms required to be considered for all types of financial aid. • Do not wait to be accepted before applying for financial aid! • To learn more about aid for college, visit http://studentaid.ed.gov/types/grants-scholarships/military • For New York State residents attending an approved college in the state, learn more about Veteran Tuition Awards at www.hesc.ny.gov/pay-for-college/military-corner.html. • Apply for your VA benefits at www.ebenefits.va.gov. • Fill out the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) at fafsa.ed.gov. • Include all universities and colleges you are considering on your FAFSA. Additional colleges can be added to your FAFSA at a later date. • Watch the deadlines! • As a Veteran or Active Duty Service Member, you may be entitled to benefits from the Post-9/11 GI Bill or the preexisting Montgomery GI Bill-Active Duty (MGIB). Many colleges also participate in the Yellow Ribbon Program as an additional grant to service members and eligible beneficiaries. Note that not every veteran is eligible to receive these benefits, and not all institutions are Yellow Ribbon participants, so be sure to ask. Also discuss with your military advisors which benefits package is best for you. Visit www.veterans.ny.gov for more information. These programs have limits in both funds and duration, so applying for additional aid (e.g., scholarships, grants) may be important, as will the number of transfer credits you receive toward the intended degree since this will help determine how long it will take to earn your degree. 8. How do I check the status of my application? • Keep in contact with the Admissions staff at the universities and colleges you are applying to throughout the process. Be sure your contact information (telephone number, email address, and mailing address) is current. • Check on the status of your military transcripts – see next column for contact information.

A “transfer” in our definition depends on the student’s enrollment status post-high school graduation regardless of credits earned in high school. That is, if a high school graduate enrolls full-time post-high school graduation, they are considered a transfer student. As long as credits were taken prior to high school graduation and the credits appear on an official transcript from a regionally accredited institution, the student is considered a first-year applicant, even if they take a gap year or only enroll part-time post-high school graduation. However, we usually consider the equivalent of one semester’s worth of credit (12 credit hours) earned post-high school graduation to qualify the student as a transfer applicant. Yes. Transfer scholarships and institutional grants. March 1 is our priority financial aid consideration deadline. Aid will be awarded after that date but on a first-come, first-serve basis.

We recommend applying in the Fall so that students can be considered for certain scholarship opportunities and so that we can begin to advise the student on the transferability of their credit.
